1907

Our Treasurer, Sam Bartlett, has assumed the duties of his new office with his usual competence. He reports that the sixty-one checks as of October 19 indicate "the boys are still interested."

In a letter to Sam in October Charlie Beals brings us up to date on his activities. He writes, "I spent the summer with my married daughter, and while there I gained in health. Now for the first time in two years when I get up in the morning I feel like work. The greatest trouble is that X have no power of endurance. After four hours of light labor in the forenoon, I am through for the day. I have always been an active man. It is hard now to slow down; but I suppose .this must be expected in a man seventy-one years of age!"

Professor "Rube" Prichard, who has retired from his teaching post in the Department of Silviculture at the New York State College of Forestry, Syracuse University, hopes to spend the winter in the South. Remembering the winter of 1947, such an ambition seems wise and commendable.

The death of George E. Dalrymple, former Mayor of Haverhill, Mass., on October 9, was reported in Boston and Haverhill papers the following day. George was educated in the public schools of Haverhill, Colby Academy, Dartmouth, and Massachusetts Institute of Technology. For 25 years he was affiliated with the Allied Shoe Industry in various capacities. Prior to becoming mayor, an office which he held for three two-year terms from 1933 through 1938, he was a member of the Board of Park Commissioners, and while mayor he at one time served as president of the Massachusetts Mayors' Club. A former chairman of the State Finance Commission, and Civilian Defense Director in Haverhill, he later received a federal appointment as advisor to the Smaller War Plants Division. In addition to his political and civic activities George was active in Masonic circles. He is survived by his wife, Cora, and a brother, Horace Dalrymple of Andover.

Congratulations and the best wishes of his classmates go to George Liscomb on the occasion of his marriage to Mrs. Fern Heath McHANOVER Leod at Woodstock, Vt., on October 15. George's address is 1 Baldwin Street, Montpelier, Vt.

October 22, eve of the Harvard Game, found '07 good-fellowship rampant in the main dining room of the Parker House. The pre-game dinner was attended by McDevitt,Kitching, Cochrane, Plummer, Tarbell, Pierce and Smart. The "sing" which followed was attended by the same, and two Harvard men! Bill Smart reports that the affair began at 6:30 and they were "thrown out" at 10:30. Sounds as if Harry Mac's usual mixing talents (musical) were in evidence.

Recent visitors to Hanover included MorrisSmith, Mr. and Mrs. Dick Lane, and Mr. andMrs. Herb Mitchell. The latter were in Hanover to visit their undergraduate son.
